Death Times Seven is the seventh and final gripping Daniel Pitt mystery in which Daniel faces two of the greatest challenges of his life.

Daniel Pitt faces two of the greatest challenges of his life . . .
London, 1913. When a brutal attack leaves Toby Kitteridge's mother dead and his father barely alive, Toby returns to his home in Suffolk. His friend and fellow barrister Daniel Pitt steps in to defend Peter Ward, who is on trial for the sexual assault and murder of a young woman. Damning evidence points to Ward's guilt but Daniel is convinced of his innocence, and Daniel's wife Miriam offers her forensics expertise to expose a group of pathologists who may have withheld information from their autopsy reports.
As the case progresses, Daniel feels compelled to help Toby, who is too distraught to investigate the attack on his parents. And when Toby's father becomes a prime suspect for murder, Daniel faces two of the greatest challenges of his life. One mistake in London and a blameless man will be hanged. One mistake in Ipswich and Toby's father will be sent to prison for the rest of his life . . .
